"A friend of mine got me into playing Fluxx years ago
with 1st edition and we'd been hooked on it since. Many a night
were spent in a diner sitting around playing. Then, one day,
I bought my first pyramids....and the rest is history. Now everyone
I know has played at least one game of Icehouse, Zarcana, or
Volcano with me." -- Michael Foster's rabbit

Sharon's Day, 1536 |
|
|
 This
weekend we traveled back in time to the year 1536. To put it
another way, we attended the Renaissance Festival!
The occasion was a very special annual event we call Sharon's
Day, a family holiday if you will, in which I (and others
in the family) get to spend the day (and a bunch of my money)
goofing off with my niece Sharon, in honor of the fact that I'm
her Godfather. Every year we try to find some new adventure to
go on, and this year, the time was right for a trip to the Renn
Fair.
Being 7 and a half years old, Sharon and her non-identical
twin James are at a perfect age to experience the wonders of
the Renn Fair. James was especially enamored with the whole concept,
since he's recently become quite obsessed with matters like knighthood
and dragons. Getting to see things like real-life jousting was
therefore a grand experience!
|
Of course Sharon had a great time too, as did all the rest
our group (Jeff & Judy with Kristin & Alison & me).
The Renn Fair is always plenty of fun... but I have to say, it
was more fun this time than it's been during my past several
visits. What made it so cool was the fresh perspective of seeing
it again, as if for the first time, through the eyes of Sharon
and James. It's fun being an uncle!
